He stated, that as soon as he under stood that the general blockade, subsequently carried into elli!,‘,t by the ,Orders in Council, was in con templation, be gave advice of it in a circular letter to his correspondents in America, as an important piece of mercantile information which it would have been a breach of his duty to omit communi cating.

Friend of his had some time ago brdught 1 . hi. a Bill in order to facilitate tbe communication by. Skta between the two countries. Under these oircurny sjatybs,- h hoped the 1 Gentlemanwould not on. I feel it necessary to call upon the House to take up I ,this part of the' case. With respect :to the other ',topic to which the Hon. Member had alluded, he had really flattered himself that he fully satisfied the :House upon• the ttubjed when it' was mentioned„ `Open a for Mer occasion. It seemed to him rather extraordinary that the. Hon. Gentle Man should irt •sist that when an express was sent over from Eng land to Ireland he should not receive A newspaper by that egress', or . that when he had received , that , ) . Itewspaper,,lte might not dispose of it as he ,:thought::ptoper. With rt.-t ,, peCt to the fa& of' the tiewspapers So received being given tci the Edi tor. of a newspaper , in Dublin, he had only 'to, repeat - what lie had before stated, that as it was thought proper the public should have as early in telligence as!pctssible, whenever a Paper was receiv ed, it Was•Sent i after it had been read, to an Irish Newspaper Office, in order that its contents might be made public. The lion. Gentleirian seemed to think that the intelligence ought to be sent round to all Irish Papers, but he really was not aware hoW he could send one Paper to several Offices. As to • the seleaion of that Paper, the reason of it was, he believed, that was the only daily Evening Paper published in Dublin. It had no leaning towards Government, and was wholly unconnected with it; therefore there could he nu other obje& iu send: . in the. English'. Newspaper to that Office, than a wish to communicate such intelligence as might ar rive, 'to the ,people of Ireland; ;IS early . as'possible. Mr. p.4 - ,BIVE L acquiesced in the wish express etd by tho.Hoctentable the ; commence 41ent OfhApleeett.

It was one of considerable meg ' nitude, ns conneded 410 t only with the general rime , Lion of public economy, but witb:Aliat subject of, which he trusted the House.woUldinever lose sight, their right to limit•the Influence of the Crown. With,. regard, to the prerogative of the Crown, be ,highly, respeiaed that prerogative, as vested'in tiie Crown for the benefit of the people, but he did not carry his respect fbrit solar as not• to - condemn the exercise of it withal)) , other 'view. This pre, rogative of the Crown had increased ef latedays considerably. For one office which a tly prudent Mali wiitild recommend/ should 'be abolished, text , new ones had :been created. The public, he allowed, was under•a delusion with respect to the number, ,of sinecure ottices,.which was not so great as had been generally:represented. He admitted also, that the holders,ofofficial public situations4vere by . 11041101135. overpaid rite their exertions, Still, howeveri,ithere. were kome offices which it was highly .probable the • Committee would recommend to be abashed ; a recotrimendation . that Must - be rendered nugatory unless some such Bill as that he was about' to sub mit to the House were agreed to. it uelt greater abuses had, taken place for some years past in grant ing Reversions of pensions than or places, but both •required I:instigation. He concluded by moving forleave to bring in a Bill to prebibit the grantingof offices in reversion for joint- lives, with benefit of survivorship, for a time to be limited. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, though he: bad ne objeelien whatever to the motion of hiskion. Friend, thought it 'but candid to 'state to him, that in all probability he should feel its. to be his duty to. propose several'amendinenta to the ill its progress through the Hotise. He agreed fully with the Hon. Gentleman as to the expediency or preserving.„; good imderstanding' between the two • Houses of Farliatnent n . lO theriffore, although he, allowed that there were obje&s of ;tech importance, that:even the.risene of a breach ought to be in curred rather than they should he abandoned, yet as be had always considered the present measure as of no ',"very great importance, and. had always 139 pressed himself upon it, lie would rather oppose its produClion than admit it, were he 'apprehensive that such an unpleasant consequence would ensue. • But it was probable the Bill might'be so framed as to a n swer all , the chief obje&s of the persons most tit taelied to the Measure, and nethe'sainetinie be ex empted frOM !opposition - elsewhere. , It was in that view he meant to recommend his amendments. 'His Hon. Friend' bad stated, and he wished it could . have beee stated more regularly, that ail' amendment to .the last Bill had been proposed in the Conifilittee of the I louse. of Lords", by which amendment hie:tileaut to be regulated in the construaion 'tlie l piiesent Now, as that amendmeht had been:negatived, to proceed upon it 'in the formation'of the• Present Bill':appeared to him to be , the sure way . oi incurring the t evil which it was so desirable' to avoid: One of the great•Objeaimis also k that had 'been made to the 'Bill in another place, was; that it destroyed a ptero-.• gatiVe of.the Crown, Without stfch a previous in quiry into a demonstration of abuse, as weal war.' rao! ! l'arliarnent in • their interference, That objec floe, ,in its degiee, must apply to the Bill as it was proposed to be introduced by his Honourable Friend. There were two great objeets' which the House had in view with ibis 11161Si:we, the first.was to obviate improvident ;rain's,' by attaching itnmediate ir;stead _ . - • • of rieMate respensibtlity to the advisers of tboseliinti, To rernedy'Ais,' he should propose a Clause, by which:no grant shpuld be considered valid - until it had bi.'erCpUbliclY antiOnneed in the'Londdn Gazette. The other' Oblea- *hid 'the House h din view whi, that their e44(jatititii)ll of any retbrin or rttreneh mint resulting from the Report of the Committee of froJnee shodkl not be disappointed. 'For this pur lid* it was his intention .to propose, that; for a limited period; every Reversionary Grant should be subje4 to ttiolition,.. or any,alteration that his Ma jesty'', with tlis advice of Parlisrrient, might think proper to map in it. The-s© propositions Avoidd, iu his opinion, Meet the views of his Hon. Friend, and Might at the same time relieve the Bill from the clan gor w hii,h had hitherto been so fatal to it. With re spe6i to the pensions mentioned by his'Hon: friend, it c ould be thund on examination, that they were chiefly in the Revenue pepartments,grante d,toper- . scans grown old in the exerciee.ef their Q(ficial.duti. W:l3 COTIVitIMI t 1);It they were of a description Ibis subject. would more yrolizlly come before tb.im when the Report of the Financial Committee . had . beeti'preginted. /P9l/in, after having stated the benefits ~d iicf' lie it option of this measure would afford, that 'the principal cause of his regret at its lihVitit been lost in the Other House was, that it iliSetlithiri that branch 'of the Legislature Was not fb'assist the House of Commons in redeem- iug the pledge which they had a few years ago given the people, to inquire into and to reform public abuses. That tlnr Lordships had been aeutted by lbw...sincerest wishes for the public advantage, he. would not deny,' but he certainly did not think that the wisdom of their decision corresponded with the ' purity of their'motivcs. He was ready fairly to own,i! that he did not look upon economy as a moans of: considerably alleviating the public burthens. But al though it would not do so much as some expeaed, andlealiwished, it would be consoling for the House trittiticlorhat ander the present circumstances of thitictiettlVys - • When the people were called upon.for •stscltesitramdinary sacrifices, every thing had"' been'. dot: why the. Legislature to prevent an unnecessary '.u&grairation of their hardships. • There existed in thdtountry a description of persons increasing with, the *.velikness of the country--persons uncopne6ted with any Party in Parliament, but whose great obje6t- was to decry Parliament altogether.- The • leaders taught, and the followers believed, . that Parliament disregarded the interests of their Constituents. This was a danger daily augment ing; the only.way of meeting it was,- by a condutit that should uot,only be free from guilt—and he need not say that-such was the conduct of that House—but also free from suspicion ; by adopting measures. th::t should chew unequivocally the disposition of .Par a ' meat to correct public abuses, and to reduce the pub- lie expenditure. Fer this purpose it. was matt do hirable that the principle of this Bill should be re- :• cognised. by Parliament. It would indeed be most unfortunate, if, the great Aristocracy,' if the beredi. tarpCounsellors of the King, were so much - misled • refuse to make this recognition. That mis- • :fortune would be much increased if certain Illus trious Personages, to whose splendour the HOMO of Commons had lately contributed so largely, should be misguided enough to take part against a measure - 3 . scot direded against the Prerogative of the CroWa, ", but simply haVing the view of met h o di sin g the 'red . gulating, And, if possible, the diminution oldie pub': lie expenditure. It had been supposed, that bs&Th"" , the Bill had not !Mich intrinsic importance attached' to lt, - the public was but little interested in its fate. . The contrary was the case. This circumtaricee ren dered the rejection of it more odious, as it 1114V/eel that it was the principle which was rejeded. • had witnessed prodigious revolutions in the state Of Empires--soma Monarchies had been totally, up• rpotecli others had been shaken to their centres. kril! wished that those persons who were most deeply in. tethsted would .examine the history of these awfid changes; they would find that they had been uni formly preceded by a strong desire in the people for reformation and retrenchment, and by a stubbprrt, proud, obstinate resolution in the Princes and No bles of the land to resist that desire.. He anxiously hoped, and sincerely prayed, that this Country Was" tar from being placed in such circumstances; • but he. must say, t hat it any one line Of co,h 4 ua more favourable4nother,t4, ws vie of those *rho:" were the advocates of revolution, it was precise , / that. ,line of condut which bad lately be e n a t i u p t ed by the Upper House of Parliament. Adverting to .the objections to the All, which had so suddenly flashed upon the mind of the Right Hon. .Gentle• man opposite, he observed, that this circumstanCi suggested to his mind very serious retlections on the nature of the influence under which that Right Pon..
